The following illustration shows examples
of conventional trailers. Fifth wheel and
gooseneck trailers are not supported.
Positioning the Trailer
Hitch the trailer to your vehicle and
connect the electrical wiring harness.
Check to make sure that the wiring is
working. See Connecting a Trailer (page
331).
Note: Trailer Backup Assistance continues
to work if the trailer wiring harness is
disconnected (for example prior to backing
down a boat ramp). Reconnect the wiring
as soon as possible.
Park your vehicle and hitched trailer on a
level surface.
For best results, make sure that your trailer
rides level with the ground when you hitch
your vehicle. See Connecting a Trailer
(page 331).
Make sure that the trailer and your vehicle
are in line with each other. You can do this
by putting the transmission in drive (D) and
pulling straight forward.

1. Press the button to switch the system

2. Press Add Trailer on the touchscreen.
